I tried picking up watercolor during Covid, but let’s just say it didn’t go as planned. It turns out I enjoyed buying art supplies far more than actually using them. These days, I stick to following r/watercolor on Reddit, living vicariously through the stunning creations others share.
So when I came across Celena Deng’s Kickstarter project, The Watercolor Floral Seeker Tarot Deck, I was instantly captivated. The deck is a stunning showcase of everything I couldn’t achieve—a perfect blend of the delicate, ethereal charm of watercolor and the profound, transformative wisdom of tarot. Already surpassing its Kickstarter goal, it’s easy to see why this project has captured the hearts of backers worldwide.
The Watercolor Floral Seeker Tarot Deck celebrates the interplay of nature and intuition. Each card in the deck is hand-painted with watercolor designs inspired by flowers, symbolizing growth, transformation, and beauty. Deng, an artist and tarot enthusiast, designed the deck to empower seekers, encouraging introspection while appreciating the delicate, transient nature of life captured through watercolor.
“The softness of watercolor perfectly mirrors the fluidity of tarot,” Deng shared in her Kickstarter campaign. “It’s a medium that allows for imperfection, much like life itself, and creates an emotional connection between the art and the seeker.”
And Deng’s project couldn’t launch at a better time, because according to Future Marketing Insights,, the global watercolor paint market was valued at approximately USD 2.5 billion in 2021 and is projected to reach around USD 4.5 billion by 2031, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1% during this period.
If you’re a fan of tarot, an admirer of watercolor art, or simply someone looking to support an inspired creative project, Deng’s Kickstarter campaign is worth exploring. With its blend of artistry and spiritual depth, this deck is sure to be a cherished addition to any tarot collection. Still available for early bird discount at the time of publication, the deck starts from $55 for a deck and $65 after early bird discount ends.
